Chapter 48 Gambling Debt

Liuli walked to the desk and wrote on the paper, "Please go to Tingyuxuan as soon as possible, and discuss important matters." Liuli put the letter into the envelope and was about to seal it, Yun Wange called her.

"Put this jade pendant in it too."

The word Liuli is different from that of Yun Liange. If you send it to Prince Ning’s Mansion like this, Chu Yu might think that someone is trying to test it, but it would be different if you have this jade pendant as a token.

Liuli took the jade pendant handed over by Yun Wange and put it in the envelope, "Sister, Liuli is going to deliver the letter. Meier will deliver her sister's medicine later."

More than half an hour after Liuli left, Mei'er brought the medicine in, "Girl, this is the medicine that Sister Liuli asked Mei'er to help the girl decoct."

Mei'er put the tray on the table, sat next to Yun Wange with the medicine bowl, scooped a spoon with a spoon, and blew it gently, "Miss, it may be a little hot..."

Yun Wange drank this spoonful, and she was embarrassed to ask Mei'er to feed her medicine, "I'll do it myself, you can do it."

Mei'er handed the medicine bowl to Yun Wange, "Then Mei'er will go out first."

Liuli went to Ningwang Mansion to deliver the letter this time, but she did not see Mingyue. She handed the letter to the butler of Ningwang Mansion, "Sir, this letter is very important. You must hand it to Your Highness as soon as possible."

The butler responded repeatedly and sent Liuli away. The butler held the letter and felt that there seemed to be something else except paper. The butler was about to go back to the room, but a servant called him.

"Butler, something is wrong, something happened." The man's voice was anxious, as if he had been running back all the way.

The housekeeper put the letter Liuli had just given him into his arms, walked up to support the man, "What's wrong?"

The man took a few breaths, "Xiaoshun... Brother Xiaoshun... owed a large amount of debt in the gambling house... now... now the gambling house... force him to pay back... the money..."

When the housekeeper heard that his son was owed debts in the gambling house, he panicked, "Which gambling house?"

"Auspicious. Good luck..."

Before the man said the word "Gambling House" was said, the housekeeper rushed to Jixiang Gambling House. He was so old, but he was just that son. Although this son was not good, he still had to rely on him to pass on his family line...

When the housekeeper felt that the auspicious gambling house, he happened to see his son being pressed by a big man, his hand being pulled by another big man, and the big man was holding a knife in his hand, and it seemed that he was going to chop off his son's hand...

"stop!"

The butler rushed up, but was pulled by a big man. He was old, how could he break free from the constraints of a big man?

"Dad, dad...you can let go of my dad..."

When Xiaoshun saw the butler coming to save him, she began to struggle and tried to get rid of the big man.

"Oh, your father is here, have you brought enough money?" The boss of the big men who were sitting aside watching the show said, "Your son owes our gambling house 30,000 taels."

Xiaoshun was shocked when he heard the number, "Where is 30,000 taels? It's only 5,000 taels, why has it changed so much?"

"Five thousand taels are yesterday's number. Of course, I have to add it today. If you have to afford it, get the money as soon as possible. If you can't afford it, you will leave your son's hand for me."

Thirty thousand taels... Where did the housekeeper go to get so much money? He suddenly thought that the hard thing in the letter Liuli gave him seemed to be jade, so he could only give it a try...

"Let me go, I'll get the money..."

The butler struggled to break free from his hand, and the boss gave the big man who was holding the butler a look, and the big man let go.

The housekeeper took out the letter from his arms. The letter was sealed. He placed the envelope on the fire to heat it, and then opened the envelope. He guessed correctly. It was the best mutton fat jade, without any impurities...

Before the housekeeper could see clearly what the words were engraved on the jade, a big man took the jade away and handed it to their boss.

The boss saw that the jade was of great quality, and it would definitely be more silver than Xiaoshun owed them. "Okay, I will barely offset the debt your son owes. Don't let me see him appear in my gambling house again in the future."

The housekeeper nodded repeatedly and pulled Xiaoshun away from the gambling house. Xiaoshun didn't expect that his father had such a valuable thing. He felt that it must be the housekeeper who hid it and deliberately refused to give it to him, and he felt a complaint in his heart.

The housekeeper didn't know what to do now. The thing was so expensive and he wanted to give to His Highness Ning. Now he asked him to pay his son's gambling debt to the gambling house...

Chen Yunfei was just released by Marquis Jian'an in the past few days. Last time, his plan to use Mr. Zhao to threaten Mr. Zhao's assassination of Liu Lanxin failed. Marquis Jian'an slapped him twice and confine him. As soon as he came out, he was taken to the gambling house by those dandy boys.

He saw the gambling shop owner holding a good piece of mutton fat jade in his hand. The quality of the jade was definitely not a folk thing, and he also felt that it looked familiar, as if he had seen it there...

"Brother, wait," he called out to the gambling owner.

The owner of the gambling house knew Chen Yunfei, the prince of Jian'an Hou's Mansion, had lost a lot of money to their gambling house in the past few days, but Chen Yunfei's identity was there, so he could not make things difficult for Chen Yunfei.

"What are the instructions of the prince?"

Chen Yunfei walked to the owner of the gambling house and finally saw the appearance of the jade pendant. Chu Xun also had a piece of jade, but it was not the word "Ning" engraved on it, but "Chu". It seemed that it was Ning Wang Chuyu's thing. Unexpectedly, Chu Yu looked serious and actually ran to the gambling house, and even compensated the symbol of his identity in the gambling house.

"I wonder where the piece of jade in your hand comes from, can you sell it to me?" Chen Yunfei always looks down on these people, but now he has something to ask for, so he doesn't call himself this prince.

The owner of the gambling house hesitated for a moment, and Chen Yunfei spoke, but he couldn't refuse, "But I found this jade for a lot of money. If it were the prince, you could take out 100,000 taels and I would like to sell this thing to the prince..."

One hundred thousand taels are not a small amount. Even Chen Yunfei can't take out so much at once, but he must get the jade, and someone will naturally give it to him at that time.

"Okay, I will give you a loan note first. At that time, I will send someone to send 100,000 taels of redemption to the loan note."

"The prince is happy." The owner of the gambling house took Chen Yunfei to a room. After Chen Yunfei signed and pressed his handprint, the owner of the gambling house handed the jade pendant to Chen Yunfei.

After Liuli returned to Tingyuxuan, she found Yun Wange walking on the ground. She hurried over and supported Yun Wange, "Sister, why don't you rest on the couch? What about Mei'er? Didn't you ask her to take good care of her sister?"

Yun Wange patted Liuli's hand and told her not to worry, "I'm just infected with wind and cold, and it's not a serious illness. Don't be so nervous. Tingyuxuan has so many things to do, so I'll let Mei'er go and do something else. Has the letter been delivered?"

Liuli nodded, "Leave it to the butler of the Ning Prince's Mansion."
